I ate breakfast alone in the restaurant, while an employee repeatedly slammed the door on me with full force!!! like a psychopath! the walls of the guest room can be made of paper, the wall is so thin. you are actually in the same room as your neighbor... . so a place below criticism is strongly negative!

Went here for 3 nights on a business trip. Thought of leaving after the first night. Due to lack of opportunities, I stayed. The rooms are very small and very low standard. Shower is small. …

The Staff is very helpful and friendly, even though all do not speak English, they are very courteous. The Breakfast is normal German fare, which is strange to most people in the U.S. but I am used to it. When I was there they had an outside grille running for dinner, which was tasty.
